The EMT Utah Volunteer Corps is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, designed to provide volunteers for disaster drills as well as medics for humanitarian expeditions.

The Corps has donated more than 5,000 hours of community service since we began in 2013.

Program Descriptions

Disaster Drills: States and other emergency response teams drill all the time to test their capacity and experience – something they will need in an emergency. And for all good drills, you need ‘patient’s – volunteers who will act as real patients. We are those volunteers. And since we have begun, our Corps of volunteers has donated over 5,000 man-hours to agencies, the military, hospitals and long term care providers for mock disaster training. Acting as ‘mock patients’ our volunteers helped make Utah a safer place to live and work.

Global Medic Assist: The program assists Non-Government Organizations and other non-profit humanitarian organizations by sending AEMTs & Paramedics to provide medical care. It is the medical officer’s responsibility to provide daily medical care to the volunteers. It’s like bringing 911 along in your back pack. We are excited to partner with CHOICE Humanitarian, an organization working to end extreme poverty in seven countries. If you are interested in volunteering or donating to the Global Medical Assist program, please contact us. We are happy to answer any question that you may have.

Stand-By First Aid Stations: Due to funding restraints, the EMT Utah Volunteer Corps will not be providing Stand-by First Aid Stations in 2017. This program may be offered again for the 2018 events season. Please consider donating to the Corps to support this effort. To donate, call 801.512.2645
